Byte Label is available as a stand-alone installer, but users are more often found installing it along with freeware. Byte Label functions as a browser app that may appear as add-on in Mozilla Firefox, a Browser Helper Object in Internet Explorer, or a browser extension in Google Chrome. The Byte Label app will modify your online experience by inserting sponsored links, in-text hyperlinks and display pop-up ads to ensure its free installation and operations. The Byte Label extension is deemed as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) because it may provide you with enhanced searches, but you may find its ad-supported aspect not to your liking. Users can safely and effortlessly remove PUPs with the services of a trusted anti-spyware program.
